The proposed expansion of the Peoria Public Library’s Lincoln branch is staring in the face of death. Literally. The land on which they want to build the addition has been and could possibly still be a graveyard, and the cost to relocate the buried bodies could deep six the expansion plan.
Sorry, I just couldn’t resist all the opportunities for puns in that story. It’s funny, but then it’s also kind of creepy the more you think about it. I hope they don’t find any bodies.
C’mon CJ if you want to mine the puns on this one you have to dig a little deeper.
This story easily could have gotten buried.
Some real digging must have gone into it.
I bet the reporter had to burn some midnight oil working the graveyard shift.
DeWayne, I’ll bet the library’s founders are turning over in their graves at the prospect of these graves being overturned!
The library board is just dying to get started on this expansion.
They’re hoping the expansion will resurrect their circulation numbers.
CJ, politically this issue could be deadly for the library administration.
Of course they probably have re”hearse”d answers and will be “coffin” them up.
Ha ha! Your puns are killer!
Maybe the board will have more answers “tomb”orrow.
In any case, this whole project is pretty big undertaking.
Didn’t they make a movie about something like this?
They need to do right by the people buried there. The remains should be moved to Springdale.
Maybe they need to do right by the taxpayers and kill this project. Is utilization so high that this expansion is really necessary??
